I don't have a STM32 chip but I have an ESP32 I ran it on first.

The code survived. Smile | :)

I have a ton of little IoT SoCs but none with a 16-bit CPU. I wonder if such an animal exists?

It would be fun to compile this for a little 65c816 though (the 16-bit CPU in the Apple IIgs and the Super Nintendo)

ah, because of the 24 I assumed maybe a 16 bit but with a 24-bit address bus? I'd rather do pure 16 if that's the case. 24 bit buses are just weird. Laugh | :laugh:

24 bit... 16 millions of colours.
The PIC24 is a genuine 16 bit MCU, the name comes from the length of its instruction word.

You could have answered him:
Only because I am better programmer than you will ever imagine in your more obscure and wet dreams, it doesn't mean that I know everything about the Arduino world. There is a difference between not being familiar with the Arduino and not being able to program crazy things that work.

I would not go into a pissing context. I would have said that and let it there.

Looking at what you were told... I suppose not much. Because one doesn't need to be Einstein to see the difference between being able to program and asking a question in an online forum about something you are not that sure and want help or confirmation.

How are you verifying the noise? What exactly is he claiming is not true?

He was claiming that my code could not run on 8-bit and 64-bit both. He said my claim "doesn't make sense"

I verified the noise through the built in Arduino IDE serial monitor. I solved it by removing conditional preprocessor defines i made from the ino file which is mysterious that it was causing the problem, but then the Arduino IDE is a godawful piece of trash and it mangles your C++ code "for you" behind your back so who knows?

Have you tried PlatformIO[^]? It allows you to use VScode to write code for Arduino and other embedded platforms.

Yeah, I'm in the middle of switching to it entirely but I have a client that needs to be able to upload my code and I'm not sure I want to take on helping get them set up, so I still have to rely on Arduino IDE since PlatformIO requires source changes to function.

I greatly prefer real C++ over those INO files.
